David Banner, LPC, LMFT
Licensed Professional Counselor
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I have over 25 years of experience counseling adults, adolescents and children. Currently I work almost exclusively
with adults and am the Director of our practice. My style is interactive and I work collaboratively with patients to
understand patterns in their lives to help them not only evolve strategies, but to strengthen their skills for making change.
My areas of expertise include working with people who struggle with Anxiety Disorders, (including Panic Attacks,
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Agoraphobia and Generalized Anxiety in everyday life); Men’s Issues (including coping
with life changing events and exploring decisions and directions in the roles they handle in their personal or career life);
Working with both men and women as they struggle with adjustment disorders (including “mid-life crises,” handling loss or potential
loss of relationships, and personal or work related stressors); Communications skills for either individuals or couples (including LGBT);
and working with individuals who struggle with feelings of depression and isolation.
Treatment preferences: While eclectic in nature, my style includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existentialism, Solution
Focused Therapy, Interactive Dialoguing and Strategizing, and Humanistic theoretic emphasis and influences.
